Velnyre City was never meant for secrets like this. Soraya Vandris does not make mistakes. She is power. Precision. Control in a world ruled by legacies, scandals, and bloodlines older than the city itself. Her plan is simple, stay untouchable, stay in control, and never let anything compromise her. But plans mean nothing when Logan Tiffin refuses to stay away. Heir to the Tiffin dynasty. Velnyre's favorite problem. Every rumor about him is worse than the last and everyone knows he's the one person you don't get involved with. Only Logan doesn't keep his distance. He crosses the line, and he doesn't stop. This was never just wrong. It was forbidden. Because before her, he was Klein Beresford's best friend. And she? She was Klein's. In Velnyre, it's never just a mistake. It's betrayal. It's scandal. It's ruin. This isn't a love story. It's a secret.

Velnyre City was never meant for people like them. Kaein Blackthorn was born into it. Legacy, power, a name that carries weight in a world ruled by empires, scandals, and bloodlines older than the city itself. Yumi Takahashi was not. She was invisible. A barista in a city that only notices you when you matter... and she doesn't. Their worlds were never supposed to collide. But plans mean nothing when heartbreak gets involved. Because Kaein Blackthorn was never chosen. Not when it mattered. Not by the one person he would've burned the world for. And Yumi? She was never seen. Not until him. What started as nothing became something neither of them expected, something neither of them can afford. Because in Velnyre, it's never just moving on. It's scandal. It's consequence. It's choosing someone when the world expects you to choose differently. This isn't a fairytale. Because in this city? Even broken hearts come with a price.

Velnyre University was never meant for girls like her. Brie Brownrigg is nothing but a scholarship girl in a kingdom ruled by legacies, scandals, and bloodlines older than the university itself. Her plan is simple, keep her head down, graduate, and leave this world of ruthless heirs behind. But plans mean nothing when Klein Beresford decides you belong to him. Heir to the Beresford empire. Golden boy of Velnyre. Every rumor about him is dangerous than the last and every girl wants to be the exception. Only Klein doesn't flirt, he doesn't chase, he hunts. And now, he's hunting her because obsession is a dangerous thing and love, in Klein's hands, feels a lot like possession. Because with him, it's never just romance. It's ruin. It's obsession. It's forever. He wasn't her prince. He was the monster at the gates, and she let him in.
